title: Immunoassay for transferrin using LKB 8600 Reaction Rate Analyzer.
abstract: A rapid immunochemical method for transferrin determination is described. The method is based on measuring turbidity caused by antigen-antibody complexes with an enzyme analyser using diluted antiserum as a starting reagent. This immunoturbidimetric method correlates well with TIBC (r=0.979; n=36). A comparison with the radial immunodiffusion method gave the correlation coefficient 0.984 and the regression line y=1.20x-0.54 (n=36).
